start where the right side was hit jack up the car & see if there is bent tie rods and look at the drive axle on the right side it could be jammed all the way in because now the right side is pushed into far or the axle shaft has bent also look at the strut alignment if it's in to far it's forcing the axle inward and jamming the transaxle you must put the car on jack stands to do this at the same height you will see that something is bent or knocked out of alignment the right side will show the more inward angle also look at the engine & trans mounts they could have been broken and now the hole power plant is out of alignment good luck and use a good jack/stands to climb under the car and have someone else there with you who is competent to help you if something goes wrong your wife may panic and not really know what to do so get a guy who is knowledgeable about these things most women just don't know & this is nothing against them it's not there thing so please be safe! I know that your not a mechanic otherwise you wouldn't be asking here so thumbs up to you for trying and your safety is of great concern any time you get under a vehicle do it in a safe place where no Dumbo's going to hit the car while your under it,it's happened to me that's why I'm including this here I had a dude back into the car while I was under it I just made it out in time before he knocked it off the jack stands on a street where there was 100 parking spots he had to park there and back into the car no less idiotic behavior is always a concern be safe Rodney please be safe!

sounds like a hard hit ur problems can be an accumulation of one or more of the following bent rim --,bent and or broken hub,-- spindle bent or broken,shock,strut bent,broken--unibody [frame]bent ---u will have to remove wheel and look at the parts and see which is damaged also open trunk and look at the floor for bends and wrinkles also look at rear from back and look at the body for straightness unless u have a straightener for the unibody to fix body and or frame should be done by shop that is trained in repairs r the parts which ever part or parts need to be replaced they are all bolt in only worry would be replacing the strut if ur chevy came with that option most had a shock

grandvirg, When standing in front of your vehicle facing the engine, look down on the right hand side and you will see the lower pulley. This is your power steering pump pulley. Behind that is the pump. Look a little further back and you will see the cap on the reservoir. Turn the cap to the left and pull straight up. There is a little dip stick on the cap to show you when you have enough fluid in the pump. Good luck with this.

There are many other things that can be bent, and it may not be visible to the naked eye. Hitting a curb at 50 mph is a BIG impact, the mounting points for the suspension components may be bent as well. This isn't a job for a mechanic, bring the car to a GOOD, reputable body shop. They have the equipment and expertise to diagnose exactly what is damaged/bent.

that person is correct. remove the wheel and look at the tie rods. this vehicle uses a rack and pinion system so look at the rod connecting the rack to the outer tie rod. you will more than likely endup replacing the inner tie rod. then take it to an alignment shop and get it aligned.

check to see if your splash guard was not put on correctly, or your shield on the back of the rotor might have been bent during the install. That can just be bent back. When your checking this check both side with the wheel turned all the way left, then all the way right and then straight forward. Remember check both side even if you dont think its coming from that side.

Suggest you check your linkages to the tranny first, ensure nothing is bent. If your shift is controled with a wire cable, check it out also, maybe is rotten.

Additionally, you didn't clarify if your wheel is straight or turned to the extreme right or left. If that is the case, example: if the wheel is locked in the left turn position, pull on the steering a bit harder to the left to release the lever tension, that might get you out of park. Good luck!
